The mountain men never told me of these Brazilian beavers you speak of… please go on!

Oh, it’s the only way to go. But a little landing strip of fur should be left. You don’t want prepubescent, juvenile beaver. Very tough and gamey (and morally reprehensible)

Brazilian beavers, once quite rare, have proliferated and can now be found most everywhere. These beavers come either completely hairless or with a patch of fur known as a “landing strip.” Very tasty if treated and prepared properly.
Ah, all this education from you wise Beaver hunters leaves me with one thought… so many Beavers and so little time!

Would that be an “eager beaver?”
…And I thought that I was supposed to be the hormone raging teenager delinquent with a perverted sense of humor!!! You guys inspire me to get older.
Honestly though, can I get someone to tell me what type of meat is the best source of protein taking into consideration availability and price?
You damn kids. =)

Ok, how about tuna?
(Tastes just like beaver though…)
Sinnaman, hit the supermarket and do some comparisons man. You’ll see availability and price right before your own eyes…
I’m sure you’ll even spot some slappable beaver tail…
I love alternative meats. My favorite is Ostrich. Taste like turkey or beef depending on the cut. Very high in protein (35g) and very little fat so it can be dry. Not as juicy as beaver.

I dunno. Is ‘eager’ the word for it?
Even after years of research, no one is clearly able to understand the emotional trends of beaver.

Hey, I resemble that remark!
Youve been given several links that show protein vs. satfat/cholest. Youve been shown lists that rank the meats according to protein content. Price varies depending on where you get it and youve been given links as to where to find it (incase your google search is broken). There are other threads on the site which have discussed exotic meats.
You want me to go to the grocery store with you?
Tell you what. Just send me your credit card and wait by your door. I’ll do some shopping for you and it’ll be delivered in no time. Guaranteed best price and quality with on-time delivery*.
*Offer not good in puerto rice or the U.S. Virgin islands. Items may appear larger than actual size (no genital jokes)
I had beaver on my log all night long. Those beavers have quite an appetite!

While I’m sure it’s a common mistake, be sure the beaver in question is really just “eager”, you’ll want to watch out for the more dangerous “busy” variety as some of these can give you more than just a greasy aftertaste. This is vital information to acquire before stuffing said beaver, and even if you’ve chosen to stuff, you should always wear your protective hunting vest in order to maximize safety, some of the “busy” variety can pack quite a venomous bite. Safety First kids!

This is true. Youth should actually go through a hunter education course before engaging in any actual beaver hunting or for the ladies any one eyed trout trolling or log rolling. Have fun, but be be safe in the great outdoors (or indoors for that matter)!
Also, when beaver hunting make sure you are packing an adequate caliber to get the job done.
We don’t want to leave wounded beavers in the field now!
Elkhntr1, all very practical and sound advice!
Make Sure you test your beaver for “mad beaver disease.” Beavers with said disease are often found living with many cats.
